Almay Smart Shade CC Concealer + Brightener in 100 Light

I included Almay's Smart Shade CC Concealer + Brightener in 100 Light* in my most recent FOTD, and now I'm back to give this product a full review! This little compact includes both a concealer and brightener, which I've been loving to lighten up my under eye circles.

Almay's Smart Shade CC Concealer + Brightener comes packaged in a small round compact that is perfect to travel with. The concealer is on the left, and the shade Light is a yellow based beige colour. The brightener is on the right side, and it's a sheer baby pink that really does help to brighten up dark circles. I use the concealer first, mainly just on my under eye circles. The formula is a bit dry, but it still somehow works wonderfully and doesn't crease at all during the day. This concealer offers medium coverage, and I love that it doesn't look cakey! The brightener is quite pigmented, so I use a light hand with it. I add a little bit of the brightener over top of the concealer, and my dark circles are instantly lightened! This duo helps me look like I've gotten a full nights' sleep, even when I've stayed up til 3 am binging on Youtube beauty videos.

This 2 in 1 product is a definite hit! The two products work very well together, and I've really been enjoying the results. For a drugstore product, I'm definitely impressed. Way to go Almay!
